Zusammenfassung

Die Entwicklung und Verbreitung der Hypoxiekammertechnologie hat in den letzten Jahrzehnten den Zugang zur Hypoxieforschung, aber auch zu Hypoxietraining und Präakklimatisation in Vorbereitung auf Aufenthalte in Großen Höhen wesentlich vereinfacht. Heute werden bereits von vielen Institutionen Höhensimulationen in Hypoxie- bzw. Klimakammern angeboten. Die Zahl experimenteller Studien stieg in den vergangenen Jahren signifikant an und die Expertise in der Höhenmedizin konnte durch zahlreiche kontrollierte Studien wesentlich verbessert werden. Die meisten Hypoxiekammern basieren auf einer Generation normobarer Hypoxie (NHX), d. h. Sauerstoff wird prozentual durch Stickstoff ersetzt, der Gesamtluftdruck in der Hypoxiekammer bleibt jedoch gegenüber der Außenatmosphäre unverändert. Seltener und technisch sehr viel aufwändiger sind Einrichtungen auf Basis hypobarer Hypoxie (HHX, Unterdruckkammern), die eine bestimmte Höhe auch druckmäßig simulieren können.
